Elmer Bernstein:"Stripes"(1980)-Main Theme

[SunnyMaaske]

this....is my ringtone now...:D

[StarskySTARS]

Elmer Bernstein make soundtracks for so many different movies but they all somehow sound the same. You can always tell if he made them.

[SCE2AUX]

"We're not going to Moscow, it's Czechoslovakia. It's like going to Wisconsin."

[TheKing890098]

One person was Russian and didn't like this AWESOME theme.

[Kovu427]

Whenever I watch this movie, I have to put a sign on the basement door that says, "WATCHING 'STRIPES' DO NOT ENTER UNLESS THERE'S A FIRE OR PATRICK SWAYZE CAME BACK FROM THE DEAD!!!" That's a fact, Jack!

[Koba4329]

thumbs up if you just looked this up because you watched the movie and just love this theme :D

[cheerdaddy667]

@Koba4329 AMEN.



[IndianaParkWars]

Thumbs up if you did not hear this on Family Guy and it took you no time to find this, because you love Stripes!

[slugworth99]

Thumbs up if you wanna give someone the "Aunt Jemima treatment"!!

[NoahMAngott]

For those of you saying it sounds like some song that came before it, IT'S A MARCH STYLE PIECE. There's a lot of 'em.

[BlackDeath17123]

Like if you're watchin' this video Italian Style. That's a fact, Jack!

[tami0027]

Family Guy!!!

[The3sikkidz]

just showed it on tv it was so great

[yzingerruss74]

Brings back some childhood memories!

[jimbolaya55]

Available on itunes - for a reasonable fee

[wertyuioman]

@jimbolaya55 10 bucks is not reasonable

[AmericanGuys100]

Actually family guy didn't use this song, they claimed it was just a close sounding song, anyway its hard to tell a difference

[chrisdkite]

is this on mp3 ? to be download

[bostonbruins93]

this should be the permanent army theme!!

[JazzJaRa]

Oh my god i remember that song, one of our Staff Sergeants used to wake us with that song in the military recruit training.

[jimbolaya55]

You men are a disgrace!

And thats a fact, Jack!

Training sir!

[TheAltair4]

A truly brilliant theme from a comedy classic.

[Johnlindsey289]

@TheAltair4

One of my favorite comedies since i was a teen

[Gears6985]

[Frausto151]

[brandtaylor93]

I feel like steeling a tripped out RV

[happinessrunns]

This is my waking up music.

[MrMIMISEKU]

This movie is a classic.

[JimSting]

An absolute genius of a theme by Elmer Bernstein for a fantastic 80s film. They don't make themes or movies like this anymore :(

[StiversGleek5]

44,500 of those views were probably mine. haha :D

[pianomanmaestro]

what was the song in Stripes where you are barely playing the piano in the background?????????

[XXXB34STXSH0TZXXX]

Thumbs up if you heard this on family guy and it took you forever to find this

[chevypillow247]

@XXXB34STXSH0TZXXX not me. I saw stripes first and realized how awesome family guy was when I herd it on there.

[magicmonkeybob]

@chevypillow247 Same here. I saw stripes when I was a kid. I just heard it on Family guy for the first time (never watched the first few episodes before), and I was like OH MY GOD THAT'S STRIPES!!!!!. Hearing this brings back so many happy memories. :)

[orcish45]

where can you get this as a download? or do you have to buy the cd itself??

[kiloch]

@orcish45 ask an internet man -or google- for a program that extracts the audio and video of utube vids

[SuperChicagobearsfan]

[Wormtail81]

Stripes?! That's where this song came from??? WOW!!!

[belmarfilms]

[ArgyleGroove]

[ArgyleGroove]

@MrUSAJAY  "Lighten up, Frances!" haha

[Bummville]

Awesome movie :D !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[lolnostanku]

@MrUSAJAY ok, I'll just touch you at night.

[CaptHyatt]

LOL, our marching band did this at our homecoming! It was awesome. (I think they did the A-Team theme as well)

[menotellname]

Sounds like a good Sousa march with great 80s television theme show hitch.

[TheF1NCH]

This sounds like it could actually be song they play at Military parades

[loufalce]

This movie is soooo politically ucorrect . I LOVE every minute of it!

[EzVanHalen]

Hey man, you wanna do me a favor and hold something?

You're not trying to smuggle any ferns are you?

Nah man. Drugs!

[jands8186]

[KODfreak]

[Godskid2009]

Are any of you homosexal? No but we're willing to learn. Will they send us anyplace special?....I take that as a no. classic

[Jurassicparkfan1001]

[DeusExTheConspiracy]

this movie takes its place among Bill Murray's best. With Caddyshack and What About Bob

[THIRDSHOCKARMY]

@DeusExTheConspiracy just about every movie bill murrays in its amazing,he made zombieland amazing

[camcorderfreak999]

Kinda reminds me of the A-team theme.

[fishslayer4]

[KODfreak]

@fishslayer4 so do I!

[THIRDSHOCKARMY]

Murray is one of the best comedians in the world,the ones we have now have no comarison.People like chris farley,john candy,rodney dangerfield are the best comedians ever

[chkjns]

Hard to believe that EB, one man, could write music for so many hit movies over a span of 47 years.

My tribute to our great musicians is an ever-expanding music history channel with over 500 playlists so far. My lists feature most genres & cover the globe. 111 lists let you hear the music of any year since 1900 like you've stepped back in time. You can hear all of EB's music on the list dedicated to him, or year by year as each movie came out.

[SketchyPeenut]

we were in band class and on the last day before finals my teacher wipped this out and we started playing it. Best Day Ever.

[BionicWhiteJedi]

bill murray FTW WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD

[KODfreak]

@BionicWhiteJedi to get to the other side?

[Amar7605]

From 1:44 to 2:01- my bloodhound came into the house, sniffed at his rug, circled around once, then plopped down and fell asleep. Hell of a funny coincidence!

[chardtomp]

Cool Elmer Bernstein march. I still hear it a lot in commercials and sports shows.

[Neuroelectronic]

This is now my alarm clock

[Epic410]

@Neuroelectronic bet you love waking up then, lol.

[drew32904]

Epic theme, one of the best!! and awesome movie.

[mrcookiemonsterr]

i have to say that this song and the A-Team theme song have to be the two greatest theme songs ever

[crazykincardineite]

@mrcookiemonsterr i'm in total agreement lol

[woshibancun]

i'm not a huge fan of classical music, but Budweiser 2010 super bowl commercial leads here:) love this...

[premiumchannelfan]

1981

[MeAbbeAbbe]

Whats the best way to find mp3iifffy to download this mp3? Someone told me to google mp3iifffy.

[loyd361]

I will never look at john candy the same way

[cowwmann2001]

makes me wanna join the army

[CommissarSteve]

This song is also used in the Super Bowl Bud Light ad where they make a human bridge.. Epic music though.

[lightninglj]

how dare you people insult this timeless classic by saying such slanderous filth, unless the saving private brian episode of family guy came out in the late 70's go ahead and slander away

[maverickls]

They didn't STEAL it from Family Guy! The movie Stripes came out almost 30 years ago you idiot.

[2sdaychicken]

i thought this was from something else befor stripes?? no?? okay, goodnight everybody

[tauerpower88]

sounds like the theme from gunsmoke or something like that but thats way before my time so i cant say.. far as i know it was stripes theme.. could be wrong tho. its kinda like magansifit 7

[HolyRoller478]

Same guy who composed the Magnificent 7... Elmer Bernstein.

[lightninglj]

anyone know where to find a good copy of this song?

[lightninglj]

yeah for some reason i also thought this was on the tank episode of family guy at the end where they drove through superstore USA.. you know, it was also the part where they drove over that little guy who owns that golf course

[mrtraveltheory]

yeah they stole it from family guy!

[tauerpower88]

nope other way around stripes is a movie that came out in the 80s. famly guy ripped it off of strips

[mrtraveltheory]

What people dont understand sarcasm anymore? I even used an exclamation point. Damn youtube users are thick.

[CrashB111]

because its hard to read sarcasm as it is a spoken form of communication made by the body language of the speaker and they inflection on the words.

[mrtraveltheory]

Oh man, thats why Ive never read a book with sarcasm in it?

Do I need to point this out too?

[CrashB111]

when you read a book with a character using sarcasm it usually says so and so said "blah blah blah" sarcasticly

[thelastspaceman]

Dont you understand punctuation anymore? An exclamation point indicates you are exclaiming something, yelling loudly or shouting. A (!) means sarcasm.

[slashandzoso]

does anybody know what song is the one that sounds in the army presentation video at chris' school???

thanks

[Burnzy503]

I think this song is played during family guy when brian and stewie go through the superstore USA with a tank :P

[mizzloudalarmclock]

the obstacle course

[BouXCIII]

and when brian is absolving his military test

[shandyalex]

awesome movie

[Robbybob1]

[HyundaiGuy101]

[MrStickman13579]

[The14thDoctor]

IMHO Elmer Bernstein's GREATEST work, although the version played at the END of the movie is a better version of this. However I've tried to find that but can't find it anywhere.

[sgtpepper1138]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Elmer
